This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to remain below RF exposure limits. This radio is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other use. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by M/A-COM, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. CAUTION This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a distance. It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy, which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material. Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for MM-015371-001 both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it. Refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html http://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html 1.2.1 Federal Communications Commission Regulations Before it was marketed in the United States, the M7300 two-way mobile radio was tested to ensure compliance with FCC RF energy exposure limits for two-way mobile radios. When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a label directing users to specific user awareness information. The radio has an RF exposure product label. Also, this Installation and Product Safety Manual and the applicable Operator’s Manual include information and operating instructions required to control RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements. 1.3 COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE STANDARDS The M7300 two-way mobile radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environment at duty-cycle times of up to 50% (50% transmit, 50% receive), and it is authorized by the FCC for occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, the radio’s antenna radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (talking), not when it is receiving (listening), or in a standby mode. The M7300 two-way mobile radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines: • United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR § 2 sub-part J. • American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005. • Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005. • IC Standard RSS-102, Issue 2, 2005: “Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radio Standards Specification. Radiofrequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus (All Frequency Bands). CAUTION Table 1-1 lists the recommended minimum safe lateral distances for a controlled environment and for unaware bystanders in an uncontrolled environment, from transmitting antennas (i.e., monopoles over a ground plane, or dipoles) at rated radio power for mobile radios installed in a vehicle. Transmit only when unaware bystanders are at least the uncontrolled recommended minimum safe lateral distance away from the transmitting antenna. MM-015371-001 Based on the highest radiated RF power and the highest gain antenna used with M7300 mobile radio in motorcycle installations, the distances listed in Table 1-1 are considered as safe distances for controlled and uncontrolled environments with the M7300 mobile radio transmitting at a maximum 50% duty cycle. Table 1-1: Recommended Minimum Safe Lateral Distance from Transmitting Antenna RECOMMENDED MINIMUM LATERAL HUMAN BODY DISTANCE FROM TRANSMITTING ANTENNA ANTENNA PART NUMBER (Catalog Number) DESCRIPTION LE-OM806HDBKTNCDS 800 MHz Antenna for Motorcycle Installations CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT (Centimeters) UNCONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT (Centimeters) 28 72 Although the M7300 mobile radio is a dual-band 700 and 800 MHz mobile radio, as of the publication of this manual, motorcycle installations are limited to the 800 MHz band only. 1.3.1 Mobile Antennas The antenna for the mobile radio must be installed in accordance with Section 7 in this manual and instructions included with the antenna. Use only the M/A-COM approved/supplied antenna(s) or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments can cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. 1.3.2 Approved Accessories The radio has been tested and meets FCC RF guidelines when used with M/A-COM accessories supplied or designated for use with it. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, and may violate FCC regulations. For a list of approved accessories refer to Section 4 in this manual (begins on page 18) and/or M/A-COM’s Products and Services Catalog. 1.3.3 Contact Information For additional information on RF exposure and other information, contact M/A-COM using one of the contact links listed in Section 3.4 on page 17. 1.4 OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY GUIDELINES AND SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION To ensure bodily exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use. Always adhere to the following basic guidelines: 1. The push-to-talk button should only be depressed when intending to send a voice message. 2. The radio should only be used for necessary work-related communications. 3. The radio should only be used by authorized and trained personnel. It should never be operated by children. MM-015371-001 4. Do not attempt any unauthorized modification to the radio. Changes or modifications to the radio may cause harmful interference and/or cause it to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. Only qualified personnel should service the radio. 5. Always use M/A-COM authorized accessories (antennas, control heads, speakers/mics, etc.). Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The information listed above provides the user with information needed to make him or her aware of a RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC exposure limits of this radio. 1.5 COMMON HAZARDS The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards common to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. Possible hazards include but are not limited to: • Explosive Atmospheres — Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle while its motor running, be sure to turn the radio OFF while fueling the vehicle. If the radio is mounted in the trunk of the vehicle, DO NOT carry containers of fuel in the trunk. Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. Turn the radio OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but not impossible that the radio or its accessories could generate sparks. • Interference To Vehicular Electronic Systems — Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid braking systems, electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the types of electronic devices that can malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency (RF) energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist his aid in determining if such electronic circuits perform normally when the radio is transmitting. • Electric Blasting Caps — To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet (305 meters) of blasting operations. Always obey the “Turn Off Two-Way Radios” (or equivalent) signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926.900). • Radio Frequency Energy — To prevent burns or related physical injury from radio frequency energy, do not operate the radio’s transmitter when anyone near the motorcycle is within the minimum safe distance from the antenna as specified in Table 1-1. Refer to Section 1.2 for additional information. • Vehicles Powered By Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas — Radio installation in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas, where the LP gas container is located in the trunk or other sealed-off space within the interior of the vehicle, must conform to the National Fire Protection Association standard NFPA 58. This requires: ¾ The space containing the radio equipment must be isolated by a seal from the space containing the LP gas container and its fittings. ¾ Outside filling connections must be used for the LP gas container. ¾ The LP gas container space shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle. MM-015371-001 1.6 SAFE DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS The American Automobile Association (AAA) advocates the following key safe driving recommendations: 1.7 • Read the literature on the safe operation of the radio. • Use both hands to steer and keep the microphone in its hanger whenever the vehicle is in motion. • Place calls only when the vehicle is stopped. • When talking from a moving vehicle is unavoidable, drive in the slower lane. Keep conversations brief. • If a conversation requires taking notes or complex thought, stop the vehicle in a safe place and continue the call. • Whenever using a mobile radio, exercise caution. OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the local, regional, or national government. In the United States, the M7300 mobile radio must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Operators of two-way radio equipment, must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to the particular type of radio operation. Following these rules helps eliminate confusion, assures the most efficient use of the existing radio channels, and results in a smoothly functioning radio network. When using a two-way radio, remember these rules: 10 • It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency message. The radio operates in much the same way as a telephone “party line.” Therefore, always listen to make sure the channel is clear before transmitting. Emergency calls have priority over all other messages. If someone is sending an emergency message – such as reporting a fire or asking for help in an accident, do not transmit unless assistance can be offered. • The use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal law. • It is against the law to send false call letters or false distress or emergency messages. The FCC requires keeping conversations brief and confine them to business. To save time, use coded messages whenever possible. • Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only essential messages. • It is against Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard on the radio. Conversations between others sharing the channel must be regarded as confidential. • The FCC requires self-identification at certain specific times by means of call letters. Refer to the rules that apply to the particular type of operation for the proper procedure. • No changes or adjustments shall be made to the equipment except by an authorized or certified electronics technician. MM-015371-001 CAUTION 1.8 Under U.S. law, operation of an unlicensed radio transmitter within the jurisdiction of the United States may be punishable by a fine of up to $10,000, imprisonment for up to two (2) years, or both. OPERATING TIPS The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios and should be avoided whenever possible: • Operating the radio in areas of low terrain, or while under power lines or bridges. • Obstructions such as mountains and buildings. In areas where transmission or reception is poor, communication improvement may sometimes be obtained by moving a few yards in another direction, or moving to a higher elevation. 11 MM-015371-001 SPECIFICATIONS1 2.1 GENERAL Dimensions, Remote-Mount Mobile Radio: (Height x Width x Depth) 2.0 x 6.9 x 9.2 inches (5.1 x 17.5 x 23.4 centimeters) (Does not include space required for mounting bracket and cables at rear of radio) Dimensions, Control Head: (Height x Width x Depth) 2.4 x 6.9 x 3.9 inches (6 x 17.5 x 10 centimeters) (Does not include bracket and mounting screws) Dimensions, Motorcycle Radio Case: (Height x Width x Depth) 4.6 x 10.1 x 17.9 inches (11.7 x 25.7 x 45.5 centimeters) (Does not include space required for brackets, cables, antenna, and key access) Weight, Front-Mount Mobile Radio: 5.9 pounds (2.68 kilograms), less bracket Weight, Remote-Mount Mobile Radio: 5.25 pounds (3.69 kilograms), less bracket Weight, Control Head: 1.25 pounds (0.57 kilograms), less bracket Operating Ambient Temperature Range: -22 to +140° Fahrenheit (-30 to +60° Celsius) Storage Temperature Range: -40 to +185° Fahrenheit (-40 to +85° Celsius) Altitude: 15,000 feet (4572 meters) maximum DC Supply Voltage Operating Range: +13.6 Vdc ±10% (Normal range per TIA-603) DC Supply Current Requirements: Receive (includes control head): With Speaker Muted: 1.1 amps maximum With 0.5-Watt Speaker Output Power: 1.5 amps maximum With 10-Watt Speaker Output Power: 3.5 amps maximum With 15-Watt Speaker Output Power: 4.0. amps maximum Transmit (includes control head): With 12-Watt RF Output Power: 8 amps maximum, 6 amps typical With 35-Watt RF Output Power: 13 amps maximum, 10 amps typical Quiescent/Off Current: Mobile Radio: Control Head: 2.2 TRANSCEIVER Frequency Ranges: Receive: 800 MHz Band: Transmit: 800 MHz Band: 100 microamps maximum 100 microamps maximum 851 to 869 MHz 806 to 824 MHz These specifications are primarily intended for the use of the installation technician.

Procedures cover the mounting and cabling of the equipment, as well as the basic test procedures. In addition, product safety-related information is included. 3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION This installation and product safety manual covers motorcycle applications of the M7300 mobile radio. Instructions for installing and testing the radio are included, along with applicable safety information. The M7300 mobile radio is a high-performance dual-band digital mobile radio. Shown in Figure 5-4 on page 27, the M7300 radio provides standard and advanced mobile radio communication functions. The radio can operate with the following radio systems/standards: • OpenSky trunked radio networks using the OpenSky Trunking Protocol (OTP); • Enhanced Digital Access Communications System (EDACS) trunked radio networks; • ProVoice trunked radio networks; • APCO Project 25 Phase I compliant Common Air Interface (P25 CAI) trunked radio networks; • Conventional FM repeater-based and FM talk-around voice communications in accordance with the TIA/EIA-603 conventional land-mobile radio standard. Although the M7300 mobile radio is a dual-band 700 and 800 MHz mobile radio, as of the publication of this manual, motorcycle installations are limited to the 800 MHz band only. In motorcycle applications, the M7300 mobile radio is mounted within a weather-resistant case. This case is secured to the motorcycle’s frame behind the seat of the motorcycle. The control head is located near the motorcycle operator’s position. The radio and case are shown in Figure 5-3 (page 26) and the radio is shown in Figure 5-4 (page 27). Control heads used with the M7300 mobile radio include the CH-721 Scan and the CH-721 System model control heads. See Figure 8-1 (page 36) through Figure 8-3. Both heads feature a large 3-line graphical vacuum-florescent display, front panel controls and buttons for user control of the mobile radio, an internal high-power audio amplifier to drive an externally-connected speaker, and a front panel microphone connector. The CH-721 System control head also has a 12-button numeric keypad that provides Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) functionality and easier operator system/group selection control at the control head’s front panel. The radio is remotely controlled by a control head via a Controller Area Network (CAN) link between the radio and control head. A 3-wire CAN cable provides the CAN link interconnection between the two units. The CAN link carries digitized microphone and speaker audio, controlling data such as button presses and radio messages, and user data such as that for a mobile data terminal connected to the serial port of the radio or control head. For proper operation, the CAN link must be terminated appropriately on each end. As shown in Figure 8-3 on page 37, the CH-721 Scan and System model control heads have several connectors located on the head’s rear panel. These connectors include a DC power connector, two (2) CAN port connectors used for CAN link interconnections, an external speaker connector, a 9-pin serial port connector for connecting optional equipment such as a mobile data terminal, and a 25-pin accessory connector. Both CH-721 models can interface to an optional Federal Signal Electronic siren/light control system for broadcasting via a public address (PA) speaker. 14 MM-015371-001 The radio must be powered by an external +13.6-volt (nominal) DC power source. In motorcycle applications, the motorcycle’s electrical system is utilized as the source of DC power. The control head connected to the radio is also powered by the same DC power source, but separately fused. When the control head is powered-up by the operator, it “wakes up” the radio by transmitting data to the radio via the CAN link. The radio provides half-duplex voice and data communications. Voice communications are accomplished via a “push-to-talk” (PTT) type microphone and a speaker connected to the control head. For data communications, the radio has an industry-standard 9-pin serial interface port for connecting optional data-type equipment, such as a Mobile Data Terminal (MDT), a laptop PC, an external display, or a key-entry device. This port works seamlessly with equipment from popular manufacturers and offthe-shelf applications. OpenSky employs User Datagram Protocol over Internet Protocol (UDP/IP) data packet transfers, providing “plug and play” connectivity for data-type devices. 800 MHz operating bands of the radio include 806 to 824 MHz repeater input band (mobile transmit) and the 851 to 869 MHz band used for repeater output and talk-around communications. The radio has an optional built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking receiver. GPS provides quick and accurate unit location information to dispatchers via the radio network. The GPS receiver determines the unit’s location and the radio transmits it to the radio network. The GPS antenna is mounted completely separate from the mobile transmit/receive antenna. The radio and control head exceed tough environmental specifications included within military standard MIL-STD-810F, the radio industry standard TIA/EIA-603, and the radio standard established by the U.S. Forest Service. An M7300 mobile radio operating on an OpenSky radio network uses Time-Division Multiple-Access (TDMA) digital modulation technology on the radio frequency link. TDMA allows multiple radio users to share a single RF channel. In addition, a single RF channel can support simultaneous digital voice and data communications. OpenSky employs Advanced Multi-Band Excitation Plus (AMBE+) speech and data compression technology developed by Digital Voice Systems, Inc. When operating on an OpenSky radio network, AMBE+ gives an M7300 radio the ability to provide exceptional voice quality via the limited bandwidth of the radio frequency path, even when the received RF signal is weak (i.e., even in “fringe” areas). AMBE+ is performed by a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) integrated circuit within the radio programmed to perform an AMBE+ compression algorithm during mobile transmissions, and an AMBE+ expansion algorithm during mobile reception. Speech compression electronic circuitry—be it AMBE+ or another type such as IMBE—is sometimes referred to as “vocoding” circuitry for voice coding, or simply a “vocoder” circuit. The M7300 mobile radio also supports radio operation on 800 MHz APCO Project 25 Phase I compliant Common Air Interface (P25 CAI) trunked radio networks, and operation in a talk-around mode in accordance with the APCO Project 25 Phase I standard. P25 radio systems utilize Improved Multi-Band Excitation (IMBE) speech/data compression technology, also developed by Digital Voice Systems, Inc. Like AMBE+ technology, IMBE technology gives the M7300 mobile radio the ability to deliver exceptional voice quality, even in areas where the received RF signal strength is weak. IMBE replicates human speech better than other voice compression technologies, resulting in better voice quality and better speaker recognition. The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) funded an independent study to evaluate compression technologies. The findings showed that when compared with other industry-recognized compression technologies, IMBE provided the highest voice quality. In the study, radio users were asked to listen to coded speech produced by four different compression technologies (i.e., vocoder circuits) operating under a variety of conditions. The users rated the speech on a scale of one to five, with five being the best quality. Under each operating condition, IMBE was rated the best. 15 MM-015371-001 The M7300 mobile radio can also operate using M/A-COM’s digital voice technology called ProVoice. Like P25 radio systems, ProVoice also employs the Improved Multi-Band Excitation (IMBE™) speech/data compression technology. EDACS and ProVoice trunked radio networks employ analog FM and 2-level Gaussian Frequency-Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation techniques on the RF channels. Data is transmitted on an RF channel at a 9600 baud rate. For over-the-air secure radio communications, the M7300 mobile radio may be equipped for 64-bit DES (Data Encryption Standard) encryption or 128/256-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption. With encryption, voice and/or user data signals transmitted and received by the radio on an RF channel are digitally encrypted (“scrambled”) to virtually eliminate unauthorized monitoring via the RF channel. Encryption requires an encryption-capable radio. Cryptographic keys are stored in the radio by the radio system administration personnel. Over-the-Air Rekeying (OTAR) will be supported in the future.

Particularly consider the connection of the radio for planning purposes. • The M7300 mobile radio and its weather-resistant case must be mounted at the rear of the motorcycle, just above the rear fender. The respective installation procedures are contained in Section 6 of this manual. 27 MM-015371-001 • The mobile antenna must be mounted at the rear of the motorcycle on the supplied case/antenna bracket. For specific antenna installation-related information, refer to Section 7 of this manual. • The CH-721 control head must be mounted at the front of the motorcycle, on the handlebars. The respective installation procedures are contained in Section 8 of this manual. • Radio and control head dimensions are listed in Section 2.1 on page 12. Several inches of clearance space is required at the back of the control head. • For other mobile radio related components such as the microphone and speaker, determine the customer’s preferences if any, for mounting locations. Comply with these preferences as long as they are consistent with safety recommendations and guidelines presented in this manual, and other generally accepted professional radio installation practices. • Verify the drilling of holes and the insertion of screws will not damage or interfere with any existing vehicle components (for example, a fuel tank, fuel lines, the transmission housing, etc.), or any existing vehicle wiring. CAUTION The radio must be kept out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. Adequate free-air ventilation must be provided to its rear fins. The radio will automatically reduce its transmit RF output power when its ambient temperature exceeds approximately +140° Fahrenheit (+60° Celsius). CAUTION All cables should have a service loop near each connector end. Do not bend the cables at severe angles near the connector end. Above all, after all components are installed, verify no cable is under any tension. Failure to do so may lead to damaged cables, causing intermittent radio operation or complete radio failure. CAUTION 5.4 Before drilling holes and/or installing mounting screws, verify these operations will not damage or interfere with any existing vehicle components such as the fuel tank, a fuel line, engine, transmission, wiring, etc. Always check to see how far the mounting screws will extend below the mounting surface prior to installation. Always deburr drilled holes before installing screws. DC POWER CONSIDERATIONS Careful consideration must be given to total direct current (DC) power drain on the motorcycle’s electrical system (e.g., battery, alternator, wiring, etc.) The motorcycle may be equipped with additional lights, light flashers, siren, public address (PA) system, etc. that, in addition to the mobile radio, place additional drains on the system. Refer to Section 2 on page 12 for the applicable specifications. 28 MM-015371-001 RADIO MECHANICAL INSTALLATION Unless otherwise noted, all installation procedures in this manual should be performed in the order presented. 6.1 INSTALLING ADAPTER BRACKET Install the Adapter Bracket by attaching it to the motorcycle’s radio bracket as follows: 1. Obtain Adapter Bracket 188D6438P1 (Item 3 in Table 4-1) included in Motorcycle Installation Kit MAMW-NZN7X. 2. Obtain the four (4) resilient mounts in Motorcycle Adapter Bracket Mounting Kit 350A1396G4 (Item 7 in Table 4-1). 3. Attach a resilient mount to each corner of the bracket using four of the eight 5/16-inch serrated nuts included in Hardware Kit 350A1396G2 (Item 6 in Table 4-1). See Figure 6-1. Use each mount’s shortest stub. Tighten these four (4) nuts securely. A torque of approximately 100 in.-lbs. (11.3 N.m.) is recommended. 4. Using Figure 6-1 and/or as a guide, securely attach the Adapter Bracket to the motorcycle’s radio bracket. Use the ¼-20 x 5/8-inch-long bolts (“hex cap screws”) and ¼-inch flatwashers included in Hardware Kit 350A1396G2. The Adapter Bracket’s four (4) large PEM nuts must be facing up and the smaller PEM nut must be facing down. Also, the small PEM nut must be to the left-rear of the motorcycle. Some motorcycle radio brackets have pre-drilled holes that will match the four (4) PEM nuts in the Adapter Bracket. If so, as illustrated in Figure 6-1, use a ¼-inch flatwasher with each ¼-20 bolt and first pass each bolt through the bracket hole, then into the respective PEM nut in the Adapter Bracket. Other motorcycle radio brackets have pre-installed PEM nuts that match holes in the Adapter Bracket. If so, as illustrated in , use ¼-inch washers with each ¼-20 bolt and first pass each bolt through the respective hole in the Adapter Bracket, then into the respective PEM nut in the motorcycle’s radio bracket. 5. Tighten all four ¼-inch bolts securely. A torque of between 55 and 60 in.-lbs. (6.2 to 6.8 N.m.) is recommended. 29 MM-015371-001 (Made From 188D6803, Sh. 2, Rev. 4) Figure 6-1: Weather-Resistant Motorcycle Radio Case and Bracket Installation 30 MM-015371-001 6.2 MOUNTING THE CASE AND CASE/ANTENNA BRACKET TO ADAPTER BRACKET Mount the motorcycle radio case and the case/antenna bracket to the adapter bracket as follows: 1.
